Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Heuchera 'Lime Marmalade' is a yellow to electic green foliaged sport of 'Marmalade'. It is super vigorous and full of ruffles and shiny golden and lime green leaves. It is hands down a better plant than 'Lime Rickey' featuring a bigger, "landscape sized" form, much better sun tolerance and ease of growth. Use in containers as well as in mixed beds and en masse. A member of the Marmalade Series which features 'Berry Marmalade', 'Marmalade', 'Lime Marmalade' and 'Ginger Peach'.

Ruffled and frilled and ready to-party, this showy lime-green mounder makes a vigorous 18" edger for container or border that does equally well in Northwest or Southeast. S-PSh/M/GDr PPAF PVR

Set your garden aglow with this luminous, mega-ruffled, chartreusey leaved gem of a Heuchera. It takes heat like a champ, making it a great option for the deep south & it's just as tough as its suave, golden leaved parent H. 'Marmalade'. Forming a charming 1' high and 2' wide rounded clump, it's the perfect pop of color for almost anywhere, even containers. In Spring to early-Summer small, tannish, 16" spikes of flowers appear. Easy to grow, it's happy with average, well-drained soil & once established it's even drought tolerant in shadier locales.

A tasty lime foliage sport from TNN's finest amber foliage Heuchera, 'Marmalade'. Super vigorous and full of frills. Like 'Marmalade' it is a tough plant and performs equally as well in the South as in the Northwest. Compared to 'Lime Rickey', 'Lime Marmalade' features a bigger, "landscape sized" form. With ruffled lime colored leaves and a large mounding habit it is showy in containers as well as in mixed beds, and masses. Easy to grow with good drainage.
